Ball Boy Scented Candle

ABOUT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS

On August 28th 1992, Prince® and Vacation® held their 7th annual interoffice tennis championships in Miami Beach Florida. Legend has it that on this day, Vacation® employee Brian Maurice Bell stumbled upon an idea that would make history for the Vacation® Sunscreen Corporation.

Officially appointed Ball Boy for the tournament, Bell initially fumbled many of his early retrievals. Sensing his frustration, defending Prince® champion Rhonda Schofield offered Bell her homemade string wax; an ad-hoc solution to aid in Bell’s traction. Bell gladly accepted the offer and applied the string wax to his hands. And whilst his performance did not in fact improve, his career certainly did. He realized that the sunscreen he’d been applying with his enwaxed hand held strong throughout the sweat-inducing gameplay - an insight that would go on to spawn Vacation® Water-Resistant Sunscreen Technology and catapult Bell into the Leisure-Enhancing Sunscreen Industry Hall of Fame.

This commemorative candle recognizes Bell and Schofield’s contributions to the Vacation® Sunscreen Company and lets you relive the historic moment with notes of freshly uncanned tennis balls, Prince® cotton sweatbands, cucumber sandwiches, Vacation® sunscreen, and of course, Schofield’s signature string wax blend.
